Of course not. But thanks for making the point... when guns are

Is that a talking point, Gene?

Couldn't the profuse number of cheap handguns manufactured in the past

Golly, we should certainly thank the NRA and congress for ensuring
everyone can be armed several times over, no matter their mental
capacity or criminal history.
